8 Were not the Cushites and the Libyans a huge army with exceedingly many chariots and cavalry? Yet because you relied on the Lord, he gave them into your hand.(A) 9 For the eyes of the Lord range throughout the entire earth to strengthen those whose heart is true to him. You have done foolishly in this, for from now on you will have wars.”(B) 10 Then Asa was angry with the seer and put him in the stocks, in prison, for he was in a rage with him because of this. And Asa inflicted cruelties on some of the people at the same time.

New International Version
8 Were not the Cushites[a](A) and Libyans a mighty army with great numbers(B) of chariots and horsemen[b]? Yet when you relied on the Lord, he delivered(C) them into your hand. 9 For the eyes(D) of the Lord range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him. You have done a foolish(E) thing, and from now on you will be at war.(F)”
10 Asa was angry with the seer because of this; he was so enraged that he put him in prison.(G) At the same time Asa brutally oppressed some of the people.
